Earlier quoted context omitted.

Reminds me of Jonathan Mann[0], who makes a song every day. I remember him from the song about the iPhone 4 antenna[1], the one Steve played at a keynote. Recently I've stumbled upon his YouTube channel and was shocked that he still, to this day continues with one song a day. It's very impressive to me. What I find even more interesting, is that he's not some social media star, he usually gets 100-200 views on those…

Anecdotally, that iPhone 4 issue effected everyone I knew that got one. Hearing that song felt like gaslighting (not really). Weird. Strange times.

Anecdotally I've used that phone caseless for 4 years and was never able to reproduce the issue, nor do I know about it affecting anyone I know.

It's weird. But anyway, iPhone 4 became an incredibly popular phone, so the problem (while obviously existant) couldn't have been that widespread.

Does anyone know what the two women in the last photo are eating? It looks sort of like a hot dog bun but slightly longer and wider.

Looks like hot dogs given the sauce selection. I didn't know there was a set length for hot dog buns.

They are sold in England with the French name baton:

It’s possible this is derived from an actual French name for this kind of short baguette, but it might also just be that someone thought it sounded French-ish, and that French people use no such word.

They are usually made to order from tubs of mayonnaise based fillings and pre-chopped salad. Here’s a closeup of one in its natural habitat:

Maybe it's translated to English -- a conductor's baton in French is a baguette after all.

Judging from the sauces and tea, it’s probably some sort of breakfast roll (containing a variation of egg, bacon, and sausage).

Lived with a French guy in college and have found it's easy to mistake "baton" with "putain".
